If you’re looking for a challenging yet rewarding climbing experience, the Ama Dablam Expedition might be just what you’re looking for. This incredible peak stands at an impressive 6812 meters and offers climbers a unique, sharp-pointed, and soaring shape that’s sure to make any climber’s heart race. Our itinerary is designed to maximize your chances of scaling the peak safely, while also providing stunning panoramic views of Mt. Everest, Lhotse, Cho Oyu, Makalu, and other Himalayan peaks.
 
That being said, it’s important to note that the climb is technically demanding and requires excellent rock and ice climbing skills. As you make your way up the standard South West ridge route to the summit, you’ll face a variety of challenges on both ice and rock scrambling. But don’t worry – we’ll be there to support you every step of the way. Our team is dedicated to ensuring your safety and success, and we take every precaution to minimize risks such as avalanches.
 
At the end of the day, the Ama Dablam Expedition isn’t just a climb – it’s a journey of self-discovery and personal growth. We’d be honored to be a part of your adventure and help you achieve your dreams.
This expedition offers the opportunity to participate in the world’s most technical climbing expedition with full support and ascend to the summit of Amadablam Peak. The previous exceptional success rate of 100% on Mt. Everest is a testament to the quality of this expedition. The expedition follows a 1 climber to 1 Sherpa support system. Joining the top 10 climbing operators in Nepal (4th in 2019) instills confidence in the quality of service provided.
